Song Description
Sitting and meditating on a quiet Saturday and wondering how to make this relationship work, needing reassurance from a loved one and not knowing how to get it, looking out the window and seeing a frozen world and feeling frozen inside. Not knowing how to work things out.

Lyrics
You're sleeping soundly in the other room
I hate to wake you on a Saturday
The sunlight's gleaming on the candles
on the mantle
I sit and meditate the time away.
In just a little while the day will begin
We'll start this relationship thing
all over again
This time will we conquer the pain?
Add up all our losses and find ourselves a gain
Figure it all out or finally go insane?
My heart is aching for a word of ease from you
Some reassurance, note of praise
Too often when I seek your eyes they turn away from me
True feelings hiding from my gaze
In just a little while the day will begin
We'll start this relationship thing
all over again
This time will we conquer the pain?
Add up all our losses and find ourselves a gain
Figure it all out or finally go insane?
November's settled in, the cold seems here to stay
Tree branches quivering
I feel them shivering
I know I'm hungry
The clock tells me so
Yet I'm frozen by the window.
In just a little while the day will begin
We'll start this relationship thing all over again
This time, will we conquer the pain?
Add up all our losses and find ourselves a gain
Figure it all out, or finally go insane?
